Cybersecurity is my focus. I work on finding threats, responding to incidents, and running security operations. My defense approach is built on one principle: I think like the attacker. I have hands-on experience across the full security operations workflow — log ingestion, SIEM alert triage, threat hunting, endpoint forensics, and network traffic analysis. I practice continuously through labs on TryHackMe, CTF competitions, and independent security research. Highlights: Ranked 74th out of 1,741 at D-CTF — DEFCAMP 2025 qualification. Focus areas: web exploitation, reverse engineering, and forensics. Participated in the DEFCAMP Car Hacking Village Published research on the ethical governance of cyber weapons and autonomous systems in national defense. Running an independent Cyber Security R&D project — threat simulation, anomaly detection, and ML-based security tooling.
